“One of the most rewarding procedures I do is cosmetic nasal surgery. I have to consider your skin thickness, bone structure, and the position of your other facial features to achieve the ideal nose for your particular face, and this ideal is different for each person.”

– Dr. Yager, Medical Director of SY Aesthetics

How Rhinoplasty Surgery Works

Realistic Possibilities

While a "perfect" nose might not always be achievable, significant enhancements are within reach. The bridge can be adjusted, nostrils narrowed, and tips refined. Yet, maintaining your nose's unique definition hinges on preserving the thickness and quantity of skin.

Procedural Insights

Rhinoplasty's duration varies (30 mins to 2 hrs), with anesthesia chosen according to your needs. Stitches, sometimes internal, dissolve over time. Cartilage grafting, often your own, might be needed to enhance support. Recovery is tailored to comfort, avoiding nasal packing or splints.

Patience and Progress

Recovery involves elevation, mild swelling, and bruising. While returning to work takes 1-2 weeks, the final result reveals itself over a year. Pain is manageable with Tylenol or CBD oil, while reshaped bridges might require avoiding glasses for 6 weeks.
